Those Honored at the Very First Variety Hitmakers Event

This year we saw the very first Variety Hitmakers award show and many of our favorite artists leave victorious. The event took place on Saturday and saw Hailee Steinfeld, Kendrick Lamar, and DJ Khaled all take home some hardware.

Kendrick Lamar went home with the Hitmaker of the Year, DJ Khaled the Mediabase PowerPlaylist Award, and Hailee Steinfeld the Variety Crossover Artist Award.
